A poll taken by PDSA (People's Dispensary for Sick Animals) veterinary charity, showed pets can suffer from a type of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Some pets develop increased appetite, grumpier disposition and will even avoid exercise. According to Elaine Pendlebury, Senior Veterinary Surgeon with PDSA, animals display similar symptoms of people with SAD‘-fatigue, depressed mood and lack of energy. Her advice is, “Just because it’s winter doesn’t mean your pet’s diet and exercise plan shouldn’t fall by the wayside. Even if your pet isn’t in the mood to exercise you should try to encourage them as much as you can”. If your pet exhibits any of these signs, keep Camp Bow Wow of Bedford Heights in mind. Our indoor/ outdoor play area encourages physical activity and socialization! To book your reservation call 440-786-3647 or email: bedfordheights@campbowwow.com .
